Food Hygiene ratings in Kirklees
Dear Kirklees Borough Council,
I would like to obtain a list of named premises serving food, i.e. cafes, restaurants, pubs, which have been closed down by the council in the last two years due to concerns over food hygiene (following Food Hygiene Rating Scheme assessments)?
Please can you provide the information in a table including the name, location, reasons for closure, and the total of the number of premises.
I would also like to know the number of these establishments whose food hygiene ratings have dropped to a level deemed unacceptable by the council and are in need of improvement?
Please can you also include this information in a table as above.
Yours faithfully,
Louise Cooper

I confirm that the Council holds details relating to food hygiene ratings,
however, Regulation 6(1)(b) of the Environmental Information Regulations
2004, applies to this information and therefore the Council is not under
an obligation to provide additional copies.
Food hygiene ratings can be found looking at the Food Hygiene Rating
Scheme website at [1]http://ratings.food.gov.uk/
For information, Regulation 6 of the Environmental Information Regulations
2004 states:
6.—(1) Where an applicant requests that the information be made available
in a particular form or format, a public authority shall make it so
available, unless—
(a)it is reasonable for it to make the information available in another
form or format; or
(b)the information is already publicly available and easily accessible to
the applicant in another form or format.
(2) If the information is not made available in the form or format
requested, the public authority shall—
(a)explain the reason for its decision as soon as possible and no later
than 20 working days after the date of receipt of the request for the
information;
(b)provide the explanation in writing if the applicant so requests; and
(c)inform the applicant of the provisions of regulation 11 and of the
enforcement and appeal provisions of the Act applied by regulation 18.
If you are not content with the handling of your request, you have the
right to ask for an internal review. Requests for internal reviews should

If you are not content with the outcome of any review you have the right
under section 50 of the 2000 Act to apply to the Information Commissioner
for a decision as to whether your request for information has been dealt
with in accordance with the requirements of the Act. The Information
Commissioner’s website is at [3]www.ico.gov.uk and gives more information
